Ok, so I'm like three fixes behind. But, I can honestly say that since September 28, I haven't had moment to step into a store and shop for myself. Granted, I am not someone who enjoys shopping in the first place, but with MacKale in and out of the hospital and home recuperating when he's not, this momma hasn't had a moment to find appropriate 'hospital' and caregiver wear. In the past, when I would send my Stitch Fix stylist a note, I would have a conference or school requests for them to ... VIEW POST

New Years Reflections
So it's January 1st and time to take stock of the last year. While others like to make resolutions, I think I would just like to count my blessings and take a cue from my teaching partner Kerri and instead of a resolution, pick a word . . . a word that will be my 'go to' word this year.

8 Tips To Help Support a Kinesthetic Classroom
8 Tips to Help Support a Kinesthetic Classroom? Don't be mistaken! This is not a 'flexible seating' post. Flexible seating is part of the puzzle piece, but throwing a bunch of wobble seats and bean bags in a classroom, does not solve the problem by itself. What's the problem? The problem is that children are wired to move and even with the best intentions and understanding of that fact, I really had to work very hard to physically get my classroom ready for that. I think I have a 'kids need ... VIEW POST
January Sensory Fun!
How many are too many sensory bins to have going at one time? Hmmm . . . that's really good question. But since I have never met a sensory table or bin I didn't like, I am probably not the best person to ask. I can tell you, however, that I have four going right now in my own classroom. I know . . . I know . . . but with so many things traditionally kindergarten that are quickly disappearing, I refuse to believe that there isn't room for sensory infused activities in our curriculum. It's ...
